It improbably glides along, a conversation of a film, two guys trusting each other or not.

By the time we're at the end of 'The End of the Tour,' it's arrived at something thoughtful and true about being a writer-and, even better, about being a real person.

What we have here is a road trip about two guys talking. And it's riveting.

Segel sells the performance by not overselling it, comfortably meeting viewers halfway between imitation and obfuscation.
August 20, 2015
Despite a premise that seems anything but cinematic, "The End of the Tour" is an offbeat and fascinating film.

I can't speak to its veracity, but I loved Segel's work here, playing Wallace as someone who over-analyzed everything, to a compulsive, near paralyzing degree, while still managing to be the most interesting, literary guy in the room.

The performances, the writing, the direction, Segel's D.F.W. impression, everything is just fine. But The End of the Tour is disgraceful. It feels like it's towing out the real Wallace's ghost to perform some soppy parody of himself.

Strong performances from the lead actors anchor the film, but the world depicted is rather too hermetic for anyone not immediately interested in the subject matter.

The End of the Tour is so effective because it's far too smart to engage in ominous foreshadowing.

The beautifully shot film is endearing and relatable, director James Ponsoldt (The Spectacular Now) has definitely delivered something that is really special.
August 27, 2015
It's a movie that makes thoughtful drama out of the essential insanity of celebrity journalism, wherein a star proclaims humility while a scribbler promises idolatry.

Taken as a film about two fictional characters, "The End of the Tour" is a stimulating delight. But it's awfully hard to call it a true honor to its subject's memory.
